Dave If the H has a live pump between the timing gears and distributor it will have live hydraulics. Belly pump system is not live.
On weight an H with a live pump should lift about same as a 300. I doubt it it will require any front end weight to lift implements you have been using on the 8N. It seems the Saginaw hitch is the best 3 point for an H, I never owned one but what I have seen they will lift with the 300 fast hitch. Having said that, 50 years ago, I was using a sprayer on 300 that weighed 350# and held 100 Imperial gallons. 1350# and I never used any front end weight, and was able to spray up hill and down.
To say an H will get light with 500# behind is ridiculous. To worry about a H not lifting any implement 8N does is also ridiculous. One look at the wheel base should answer both these questions. I use a 24 blade, 18" blades, disk, mounted behind my 130 and 140, must weigh close to 1,000# and I only have to use 300# of front end weight. If the front end weight is not close at hand, and I have just a small area to disk, I can get by without the front end weight, being careful.
If you plow, you will find these after market hitches don't control the plow as well as factory draft controlled hitches. This will not be crucial unless traction is a problem. Let me assure you, traction will never be a problem pulling any plow the 8N pulled, pulling it with the H.
